STMicroelectronics unveiled the STM32A microcontroller family for automotive and high-safety uses, from entry-level vehicle nodes to ASIL D-capable zonal endpoints, and also targets industrial automation, robotics and infrastructure. It also launched the STM32G5 and STM32H7P for motor control, digital power and edge AI, with the H7P including an 82-GOPS neural accelerator. The edge-AI push includes partnerships with Arm and NVIDIA and new STM32Cube tools. ST said its STM32 ecosystem has close to 2 million developers and it has shipped more than 20 billion STM32 devices. Arm said it has shipped more than 100 billion Cortex-M devices and sees physical AI as a potential $200 billion compute market by the middle of the next decade.

- BB Stock Rises Overnight: BlackBerry CEO Says QNX's Alloy Kore Expanding Market— 'The Products We Sell Are Pervasive Around You'
BlackBerry (BB) stock edged 0.5% higher overnight after a 3% gain in the regular session, as CEO John Giamatteo highlighted prospects in automotive software, robotics and physical AI. He said the Alloy Kore platform, which combines the QNX operating system with middleware, expands the addressable market, and its first design win is expected to bring more than $100 million in future royalties, the biggest in QNX's history. QNX reported a record royalty backlog of over $1.2 billion, up 26% from about $950 million in the previous fiscal year. Giamatteo also pointed to Nvidia's adoption of QNX as the platform for its robot stack, opening opportunities beyond automotive. The stock is up 142%, on track for its best year since 2007.
- AI Chips Today - Advancements In Embodied AI Boost Robot Reliability And Adaptability
DEEP Robotics unveiled five research advances in embodied AI for its DEEPRobotics-Brain architecture, covering action anticipation, navigation, manipulation, policy optimization, predictive memory and real-world robot benchmarks. The work aims to make robots more reliable in dynamic environments and able to respond to human instructions across varied operating conditions. In other trading, Semtech rose 5.5% to close at $132.00, while Hangzhou Changchuan Technology fell 10.3% to CN¥181.18. Among AI chip stocks, Micron rose 2.5% to $877.55, Broadcom fell 0.5% to $321.68 and NVIDIA slipped 0.6% to $210.96, and NVIDIA also signed an MOU with inDrive and Pony.ai to explore autonomous ride-hailing in Kazakhstan this week.
- Global Physical Artificial Intelligence (AI) Market Report 2026-2040 | Market to Reach $3.26 Trillion as Robotics, Autonomous Systems, and Wearables Scale
The global Physical AI market is forecast to grow from about $383 billion in 2026 to $3.26 trillion by 2040, driven by autonomous robots, self-driving vehicles, humanoid systems, industrial automation and wearables. Unlike digital AI, where US model makers and NVIDIA-based infrastructure lead, the physical AI race remains open: the US leads in foundation models, China in manufacturing scale and cost, Europe in industrial deployment and certified trustworthiness, and Japan in operational data from high robot density. The report says 2026-2032 will be a critical window for building infrastructure, securing semiconductor supply chains and setting regulatory standards. It frames adoption in three waves, from structured industrial settings to consumer and national deployment, and covers ten sectors including wearables, healthcare and defence.
- Musk: Robot RAM Needs “Will Exceed Everything Else on Earth.” What That Means for Micron
Elon Musk dismissed an estimate that humanoid robots will use about 0.04% of 2026 DRAM output, saying robot memory needs will exceed everything else on Earth. Counterpoint Research projects humanoid-robot DRAM demand will rise about 20x by 2030. The article argues robots won't move Micron's results for years, but a large new buyer late in the decade could keep memory scarce longer, while consensus expects Micron's gross margin to slide from 87.0% in fiscal 2027 to 65.5% in fiscal 2030. Micron trades at 5.3x forward earnings, less than half its 12x average over the last three years. It also notes Micron, its rivals and China's CXMT are adding capacity in 2027 and 2028, and memory has gone bust before.
- Elon Musk Says Robots Will Need More Memory Than 'Everything Else on Earth' — This Analyst Sees 'Much Bigger Volume Story' for Micron, SK Hynix
Elon Musk says robot RAM needs will exceed everything else on Earth, and analyst Shay Boloor sees this as a potentially much bigger volume story for Micron and SK Hynix. Counterpoint Research projects humanoid robots will need 20 times more DRAM by 2030, with memory per robot rising to 39GB from 19GB today. Boloor estimates that Tesla producing 10 million Optimus robots a year would require about 720 petabytes of memory at 72GB per robot, and notes robots use low-power memory chips rather than high-bandwidth memory. Tesla targets first customer deliveries around the end of next year, and reaching 20,000 units a week at the Fremont line will take at least a year. A reported first order for about 5,000 Optimus units has not been confirmed by the company.
- Teradyne Stock Faces A New Test As Warehouse Robotics Partnership Expands
Teradyne Robotics and Sereact announced a partnership combining Sereact's Cortex physical AI platform with Universal Robots' collaborative arms to automate logistics tasks such as returns handling at Zalando's European fulfillment centers, with hundreds of dual-arm UR systems being rolled out. The article links this to a FormFactor collaboration announced October 12 on semiconductor test architectures. Its near-term focus is the October 27 earnings release, and the main operational risk cited is gross margin pressure from product mix, memory pricing, and higher R&D and go-to-market spending. Analyst consensus cited in the article assumes revenue growth of 22.7% a year for three years and profit rising from US$1.2b to US$2.6b by 2029, with an average price target of US$446.47, 10.2% above the spot price of US$400.75.

- Gartner Stock Crashed Despite Raised Guidance. Here's What Spooked Investors
Gartner shares fell nearly 20% Tuesday morning and were still down about 13% at 3:30 p.m. ET, despite beating its own forecasts and raising its full-year outlook. Contract value, the metric investors watch most closely, rose 2.5% year over year to $5.3 billion, its third straight quarter of faster growth but still slow. Revenue slipped 1.3% to $1.5 billion, partly due to the sale of its Digital Markets unit, while adjusted EPS jumped 30% to $3.59. Gartner repurchased $1.7 billion of stock over the past four quarters, reducing shares outstanding by close to 15%. The article says the stock may not get much credit until contract value growth picks up, amid pressure from the war in the Middle East and new tech layoffs.
- Eaton's strong quarter should mark a bottom for shares of the AI buildout winner
Eaton reported third-quarter revenue up 28% year over year to a record $8.95 billion, above the LSEG consensus of $8.51 billion, while adjusted EPS rose 20% to $3.68 versus the $3.54 expected. Data center revenue jumped 65%, management raised its full-year outlook for the third time this year, and the $9.5 billion Boyd Thermal acquisition continued to contribute strongly. Shares rose almost 7% to about $391 in afternoon trading but remain below their August closing high of roughly $460. Eaton's tracking shows announced U.S. data center projects total 366 gigawatts, up from 307 gigawatts three months earlier, versus installed capacity of about 50 gigawatts. The article reiterates a hold-equivalent 2 rating and a $450 price target, while looking for signs that bearishness across the AI trade is easing.

- Uber president Jill Hazelbaker joins OpenAI as communications chief
Uber said Jill Hazelbaker, its president, will leave to become chief corporate affairs officer at OpenAI, where she will oversee global communications and corporate positioning. She joined Uber in 2015 after stints at Snapchat and Google and played a key role under co-founder Travis Kalanick. She was promoted to president and chief corporate affairs officer in May, taking on HR and real estate; a month later she announced cutting 23% of positions in Uber's HR division, and the company later ran layoffs affecting 10% of its workforce. Her exit follows other departures, including Sarfraz Maredia, the global head of autonomous mobility and delivery, who leaves later this month after more than 12 years, and Susan Anderson, who led the delivery business and left in June after nearly a decade.
